Totally disagree with much of what is said in that link. Door post pressures are the minimum to carry a fully load rating, not necessarily the best for handling, mileage, or wear. Never fill to max?...

I would be surprised if you did lose mileage because of the Defenders, at least if they are like the MS2 tires we have on the van and Defenders on DW's CRV. They feel quite soft and easy rolling, ...

You can also run them a bit lower...

I had noticed that too. That style seems to have made it up from the MS2 through the Defender to the Agilis. I think that is good because the run quiet and have decent traction.

I may be wrong, but I think all the Cmetric sizes are symmetrical tread. If you look at Tire Rack site they list Pmetric and Cmetric sizes as available, so I think those would be different patterns.

I was just looking at available sizes and I didn't see the 245-75-16 in the C metric directional tires. Did you use a different size than that?

Did you get the LTX Defenders or regular LTX of old, which may still be available depending on who you talk to?

Michelin tire availability changes

It appears that the often first choice Defenders are going away in the 16" sizes used on many of our vans, which kind of pains me because our now 6 year old MS2 Michelins will be do to replace in a...
